Hi all

I was in america already as an Au-pair and got married in my last month of my 24 months Visa I got married. Now I am fieling everything from america and I see alot of people talking about the pakets 3 talking but what contains a paket 3?

I did not have to file the 129 F because I live already here. How does all that work.

Some help and infos please. helpsmilie.gif helpsmilie.gif

You are not applying for a visa, you are apply for AOS/Adjustment of Status. None of the visa information applies to your case.

It looks like you've submitted everything to adjust your status, plus work and travel authorization documents.
Now you wait. smile.gif

You can watch the processing times for your District Office at uscis.gov. Look at the timelines for I-485 to get an idea of how quickly you might get called for your AOS interview. Your job now is to prepare for that interview with evidence that you and your spouse have a bonafide marriage, with appropriate comingling of assets, interests and life.
After your interview, if successful, you will be a Permanent Resident and have a Green Card. Then you are OK to live and work in America for as long as you like.
2 years after your interview, you'll have one more form to file. You can read about it ahead if you like; it's I-751. Find the pages at uscis.gov called Now That You Are a Permanent Resident for a full explanation.
